Trappist Rhubarb-Strawberry Preserves

Made by the Trappist Monks of St. Joseph’s Abbey in central Massachusetts since 1954. The Abbey was founded in 1950 by Belgian and French Trappist monks from the Monastery of Our Lady of the Valley in Valley Falls, Rhode Island, which had burned to the ground. In the rustic hills of central New England, they established a new home in which to follow an age-old contemplative way of life.
